  1. I never understand why people like you are so f**king needy for other people to be constantly around you.
    And then to somehow present this as a character strength is truly bizarre.
    Where is this pathetic dependency coming from? :blink:
    What are you going to be like in your 80's when you are on your own for maybe 10 years or so before you die? [emoji38]
    We are all born alone and we all die alone. Everything else is f**king about with the deck chairs. Why are you in denial about this?


    My late mother always told me she was definitely there when I was born. And a big fat midwife skelped my arse. Cow!
  2. Meanwhile a young 22 year old girl Lucy Lintott is dying of MND where the funds attributed to research on  this disease are peanuts !.
    Every penny of that moron Neymar's transfer fee should be put to causes like that !


    How do you know Neymar is a moron? How much does he give to charity?
  3. Know any of this lot Rick?
     
     


    Meant to reply earlier to this. Asked about but none of my friends saw it. I knew there had been a punch up because the parade stopped for about twenty minutes. It was near the front of the parade so I suspect it involved a Bangor lodge as they were leading the march. It's par for the course.
    The first parade my wife and I saw was thirty years ago. Against our better judgement we were persuaded by friends to go up to Belfast. We were near Sandy Row across the road, appropriately I suppose , from the Rangers supporters club. About fifty yards along the road from us a fight broke out. I'm talking about bandsmen, not spectators although they soon joined in. What a donnybrook it was. Bottles, glasses even flutes and drums were used as weapons. It went on for ages. I never did hear what it was about or how many got injured. They hush these things up. When the parade was finally over and we were heading back to our cars we were knee deep in litter, glasses and bottles. I decided that would be my last parade and by and large I have stuck to it. This year's parade started about an hour late and that's why I got caught up in it.
    I don't know how anyone ever came to think I have any time for the Orange Order. Over the years on this forum I have knocked them. But we allegedly live in a democracy so I have to respect their right to march. My original post was intended to polnt out the ridiculous Rangers association and as far as I'm concerned, exploitation of children.
    There are kids of two and three years in the parades. Babies are carried by some. I even saw a big dug with a collarette! A red, white and blue one! The collarette, no the dug.
    Aye, I just love the 12th.

    You are such a dick. 

    Well, you should know what a dick is OK. Look in the mirror. I've been a St.Mirren fan for more than 60 years and there have  always been more bad days than good. It goes with the territory. You clearly can't take the heat so why don't you do most of us a favour and get the hell out of the kitchen. Your non-stop vituperation is tedious to the bulk of guys in the forum. Did your granny never tell you that if you don't have anything nice to say, then you should shut the f**k up?

    If it's any consolation to you, the original Elvis was off his head too. But at least he was a pretty good chanter.

  5. The behaviour of the fans was a disgrace last night but that I'm sure isn't a surprise to anyone. Haven't heard yet if there was any trouble in Belfast after the match last night. Will be surprised if there wasn't some bother.

    Did hear late last night that the PSNI did a rush job on the Bucky half bottle for fingerprints. They checked the National database of known criminals and got a hit right away. A guy called Griffiths from Edinburgh.

  6. Saw a bit of the walk in Bangor for the first time in years and only because it ran very late. Couldn't help taking a couple of shots that I found 'interesting'. Hope nobody takes offence. What some folks get their kids involved in really staggers me.

    Apparently , Alzheimer's is almost unknown in the sub-continent , I reckon we should all eat more currys . .:P

     

    You might be too old now Bluto , to take advantage of the benefits of the curry diet. .

     

     

    The sad truth is that despite the increase in longevity in parts of the sub-continent, in many regions life expectancy is still only somewhere in the 50's or 60's. In other words many die before they reach the typical age when Alzheimer's is likely to set in.

  8. Yeh it was the horizontal sign that I was referring to , it was more eye catching. .


    Don't know if I agree. The way the vertical sign's letters lit up one at a time finishing with 'for best value' lighting up last was very eye catching.It was a different colour. From memory I think the big letters were red and the value one was I think yellow. Then they all switched off simultaneously and it started all over again. I imagine someone, somewhere has an old film of it stored away somewhere.

    I remember that sign. "PCMS for value"

    I think it actually said for good value. Not sure though. Those words were written horizontally whereas the PCMS letters were vertical.

    I agree, Rick.

     

    precisely the same stream of thought that I had....

     

     

     

    :unsure:

    Thought somebody would notice that. I had something really important to say about Rangers. But I got it mixed up with King Billy's spurs being up for sale. Honest. A lot of pricks in there somewhere.

  11. It has also been about other organisations trying to exploit this immoral cheat...
    ... but aye - if I were one of the 80 people paid £48m over 10 years to unfairly win 14 trophies, then I would certainly be worried.  They were all offered the chance to settle by this year witho HMRC.  If they trusted in the deid club's Administrators to get them off the hook, then they were sadly naïve.
    And I never knew that transferring assets meant you no longer owed tax?  That's not a new one - and not a loophole, either, I'm afraid.


  12. What is this pish all about ? 
    New Zealand, population 4.6 million. 
    Playing 
    England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland all combined as fecking Lions. 
    Farcical 
     


    USA population 300m +. Still no good at footy.
  13. Yeah but the gossip is it's us or Falkirk who are in for him - neither of whom will be in a position to pay the £1700 p.w. Loy is reputed to be on so Dundee will probably have to release two players in order to sign one.
    Spoiler Normal rules may not apply to Dundee if they're en route to Admin3.
     


    £1,700 a week sounds not too bad. Out of curiosity, does anyone have any idea of the average weekly wage of our first team squad?
  14. I was in the Multan Tandoori for the first time on Saturday night. Had heard some good things. The meal was fantastic, one of the best curries I have ever eaten. Unfortunately the service was absolutely bloody awful. My daughter and her partner were all for walking out but I couldn't be bothered searching about for a table somewhere else. I would possibly go back on a quiet midweek night because the food was so good. Just a pity about what was probably the slowest service I have ever experienced.

    Yes. 11 years a buddie, workwise.

    I only spoke to him on a very few occasions. I can still picture him walking down St.Mirren Brae with his briefcase and wearing an old raincoat. He had a limp then and I was told he had polio when he was a boy. No idea if that was true.
